What would be the perfect Arashi concert?

I've been thinking about this for a while... The idea, actually came to me before attending this tour's concerts, but after going there and seeing them for real ^^ while they sung some of my fav songs, I kept wondering... what would be my favorite concert, the perfect concert including all the songs you love. If you could choose, if you had the power to decide the list, what would include...

I know it depends on your mood and state of mind... so maybe it could be interesting to do it now and maybe six months from now or so...

So here it is, my list of favorite songs that would turn an Arashi concert (which in itself is perfect already) in the perfect concert for me!

I'd have liked to put the songs in order having in mind the flow and the changes between slow song-quick song-dancing song... etc... but the important thing here is the list of songs... I didn't have that in mind (maybe next time I'll do it more carefully).

*I decided the number of songs making a search in google that took me to a lj with a report of last year (2010) Kokuritsu concert (because of course my perfect concert should be held there ;))



1. Rock this
2. Superfresh
3. Spiral
4. Tokei Jikake no umbrella
5. How to fly
6. Boom Boom
7. Yes No?
8. Once Again
9. Lucky Man
10. Right back to you
11. I want somebody
12. Only Love
13. Re(mark)able
14. Attack it!
15. La tormenta 2004
16. Carnaval Night 2
17. A Day in our life
18. Cry for you
19. Love Situation
20. Secret Eyes
21. Troublemaker
22. Mada ue o
23. Negai
24. Morning Light
25. Refrain
26. Let me down
27. Hatenai Sora
28. Always
29. Hanasanai
30. Aozora Pedaru
31. Circus

Solos:
Ohno: Take me far away
Sho: T.A.B.O.O
Aiba: Magical Song
Nino: Doko ni demo aru uta
Jun: La familia*

Encore 1
1. Crazy Moon
2. Truth
3. Monster
4. Believe
5. We can make it

Encore 2
1. 5x10

* I really wonder how Jun would perform that song now that he is older...


I really wonder how much this list can change as time goes by... I'd love to read other people's and see if we have things in common or not, but of course is up to you ^^

I'm going to be with no proper Internet connection next week starting tomorrow. I'll really try to get time to be around, but I will depend on relatives' wifis :S ;)

That's an EXCELLENT choice of Arashi songs! Altho' I would add "To be free" to the list since I LOVE this song ^_^ I wonder why Arashi has never performed "Tokei jikake no umbrella" in a concert before. It's an awesome song!
Anyway, love the list! You did choose great songs!♥

That'll be a great concert >,<
But, cz i'm new i don't really know some older songs (what kind of fan actually i am = =")
For me, I love to see them dancing around ^^ So my choice would be like Truth, Monster, Crazy Moon, and all
But I also like it when they do funny songs and moves like Troublemaker >,<
Great list!^^

Ginger-san, would you mind to give me some recommendations? ^^
I'd like to hear them (and love them) more ^^

[identity profile] omiage.livejournal.com 2011-10-26 06:32 am (UTC)(link)

But anything you think good will be fine for me ;-)

What an interesting topic to talk about, Ginger-san! ^.^ Your perfect concert´s list is really amazing! My list would be this one, but I am not sure if this would be the order of the performances:
1 - Moving on; 2 – Troublemaker; 3 - We can make it; 4 - Love Situation; 5 – Still; 6 – Blue; 7 - Snow flake; 8 – Sirius; 9 - Carry on; 10 - Cry for you; 11 - How to fly; 12 - Mada Minu Sekai e; 13 - Mada ue o; 14 - Tokei Jikake no umbrela; 15 - Right back to you; 16 - Yes No?; 17 - I want somebody; 18 – Wasurerarenai; 19 – Season; 20 – Kaze; 21 - Oh Yeah!; 22 –Believe; 23 – Truth; 24 – Always; 25 – Joy; 26 – Monster; 27 - Crazy Moon; 28 - La tormenta 2004; 29 - Sakura Sake.
Encore: 1 - A-Ra-Shi; 2 - Pikanchi Double; 3 - Kansha Kangeki Ame Arashi, 4 - A Day in Our Life
Double Encore: 5 x 10.
Solos: La Famiglia or Yabai Yabai (Jun-kun), Take me far away (Riida), Niji (Nino), Kono mama moto (Sho-chan), Hello Goodbye (Aiba-chan).
Our lists have several songs in common! ^.^
But I guess you are right, probably this list would change in six months from now… After all, the preferences always change! ^.^
So, are going to visit your relatives? Have a nice time and take care! ^.^ And I hope you find a good internet connection! ^.^

Don´t worry, Ginger-san, I know you are not the type that rubs things in other´s face – it´s a fact that you saw Kono Mama Moto live and it is a happy fact! ^.~ Taboo is hotter and sexier, but I like Sho-kun as a sweet boy singing a balad that´s why I chose Kono Mama Moto, but Taboo is great too! ^.^
You can count me on to comment your future list in six months from now! ^.~
By the way, I can´t wait to hear their new song that will come with that special edition of Beautiful World Album! *.* They wrote it together, so I am really looking forward to it! ^.^
Enjoy your time at your parent´s house! ^.^

XD You like many of the B-side songs like I do. Especially Spiral, tokei jikake, and boom boom are so cool and I love them. <3

I would choose anti anti for Sho's solo, though. That's my favorite solo from him.

... and Re(mark)able, Attack it, and La Tormenta are in the same line, so I'd just choose one.

And add 2-3 from this pool: Everything, boku ga boku no subete, Subarashiki Sekai, Still, Futari no kinenbi, kansha kangeki ame arashi, or Life. (I should say among these, Still and Everything are my fav.)

Definitely add Pikanchi Double. I love that song soooooooooo much. :)

I like Rock this, but as an opening, I sort of like movin' on a bit more. There's something about the lyrics of movin' on that I'm just in love with so much.

since you won't have much internet, I won't posting anything this weekend. LOL
JUST KIDDING <-- as in I'm kidding about the reason. The truth is I have to give a presentation next week... and I'm not done with the slides yet. -"-

Interesting meme!! For me it wouldn't be a concert without Happiness and Kitto Daijoubu. I went totally mad when they came on. I'd want Season too! I have always wanted them to perform Modori Ame as well but they've never sung it at a concert as far as I know. Definitely one of my favourite songs.

Been watching The Sing-Off show these days. Watch it, so good~ ^^

Which is why I want some a cappella thrown in. Either one song or a medley a cappella.
I think they can do it. ^^

I would include all the songs they have written as a group or individually. Maybe an English song or two - in solos or group.

I would like Sho to do a full-on hip hop/rap performance.

The Sing-Off is an American show. Currently in its third season. I got it off the internet. ^^

The only a cappella performance from Arashi off the top of my head is 'Kimi Ga Iinda' from MSte. They did a minute or so of that before going into Tomadoinagara. I love Kimi ga iinda. If only they performed it again... ^^

I would love to watch The Show DVD. J-Storm, why aren't you releasing it? Yeah, another solo concert would be difficult to do these days. Arashi have a lot on their plate...
